So this month has been full of achievements, Harry is now splendid with a headcollar, I can take it off and leave it off for a few days then put it back on without any trouble at all. He will stand happily to be groomed all over, mane and tail brushed out fully. Which is a good thing as he has also discovered the joys of rolling! he frequently comes in to the stable for dinner covered in mud!He has been for several more walks all without incident, and the biggest thing has been his feet.

To start with he was funny with his front and awful with his back, couldn't even run my hand down his leg without him spinning around in circles (Tied up aswell!) Eventually with a lot of patience managed to have him happily standing to have his front feet picked up and picked out, but back end was still a problem, couldn't get a hand on his feet, so got a friend to hold him and give him a carrot or two while I did his back feet, he was a bit better and managed to hold them up for a bit then let them down again, did this a few times with friend holding him, in the meantime he was being splendid with his front feet, I could now pick them up and hold them up for a few seconds while he was loose, he didn't move at all!

So today I tried tying him up and seeing if he was manageable with his back end, as this was how we started off with the front feet. Well he did move around a bit but nowhere near as bad as he had been, and then he stopped and I managed to pick his back feet up and hold them! All on my lonesome! What a wonderful pony I have :) Possibly by next month he may have had a blacksmith visit aswell.
